Abstract

Objective: The study investigated the adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) following the Medication Therapy Management (MTM) and Pharmacist Counselling (PC) among HIV/AIDS patients at a public hospital in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental pretest-post-test design with a single-group intervention. There were two types of participants in this study: 40 patients and 16 family members who received interventions. Patients' adherence was assessed using the Proportion Day Covered (PDC). Data pre and post intervention were analysed using the Wilcoxon test. Results: The patients exhibit a significant change in knowledge (z = 5.323; p < 0.05; r = 0.5 (large effect); before/after median 9.0 to 11.0), as do the family members (z = 3.457; p < 0.05; r = 0.33 (medium effect); before/after median 10.0 to 12.0), pre- and post-interventions. Counselling to the patients demonstrates a significant change in adherence to ART (z = 3.903; p < 0.05; r = 0.37 (medium effect); before/after median 0.97 to 1.00), while counselling to the family members exhibits no significant difference in patients' adherence (z = 0.071; p > 0.05; r = 0.01 (small effect); before/after median 0.97 to 1.00). Conclusion: Interventions involving Medication Therapy Management and Pharmacist Counselling delivered by pharmacists to HIV/AIDS patients change adherence to ART rather than counselling family members within this group. Regardless, it should be noted that this study was without a control group.
